CrownPlay Casino - Player claims that payment has been delayed.

Player stopped responding

Case summary

The player from Australia had requested a withdrawal less than two weeks prior to submitting this complaint. The payment had not been processed yet. He later reported that two $1,200 winnings withdrawals had been marked as processed by the casino, but his bank could not locate the funds and suggested a third-party payment provider error. We asked him for a bank statement to continue the investigation, but he did not respond to our follow-up messages. As a result, we were unable to proceed further, and the complaint was closed for now due to lack of response.

I am a level 5 VIP with Crownplay. I made 2 withdrawals of $1200 each on the 13/07/2026. Both withdrawals were supposedly complete and sent to my nominated bank account. Upon waiting up to 7 business days as I was advised by the staff, I did not receive any funds in my bank account. I began to contact Crownplay casino through multiple sources such as email and live chat support. I have had VIP agents respond to me saying that the matter is being investigated, the payments were cancelled by my bank and other excuses that don’t sound true at all. I have made many withdrawals from this Casino before and never had a problem, however I have noticed very suspicious behaviour by the Casino since I was promoted to top tier VIP like a lack of support and emails being ignored and not receiving responses.

Dear dobronxx,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. We are sorry to hear about the issue with your withdrawal and understand your concern. However, please bear in mind that it’s quite usual for withdrawals to take a couple of days or even weeks to get fully processed. This means that it may take some time before your money appears in your account. This delay may be caused by unfinished KYC verification or a high volume of withdrawal requests.
That’s why we advise players to be patient, cooperate fully with casino, and wait at least 14 days after requesting their withdrawals before submitting a complaint.

If your account has been successfully verified, your game history checked, your withdrawal approved by the casino, and you still haven't received your winnings by 14 days since requesting the withdrawal, we will intervene and do our best to help you.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,
Complaints Resolution Center

Hello Jean,


My account has been verified for quite a long time with this casino. Like I mentioned before, I have received multiple withdrawals from this Casino before without any complications of this sort. Today is also 13 days since I made the withdrawals so I doubt by midnight I will be receiving the funds in my bank account.

Hello,


I have received an email back from the Casino with the processing details of the withdrawals and information stating that the withdrawals have been completed on the Casino’s end. I have been asked to provide a bank statement to the Casino which I have already now sent so that they can investigate it further with the payment provider.

Thank you for the update. Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can understand the situation.

  • You mentioned that you have already had successful withdrawals before. How long do your withdrawals (using the same payment method) usually take to be processed?
  • Could you please confirm that you have passed the KYC (Know Your Customer) verification?
  • Have you accumulated your winnings with or without an active bonus?
  • Could you please forward all relevant correspondence between you and the casino to jean.s@casino.guru? If it’s more convenient, you may also post screenshots here.

I understand this may take time, so I appreciate your assistance.

The withdrawals I have made in the past have taken anywhere between 3 days to 7 days maximum.


I have completed all KYC quite some time ago.


My winnings were not accumulated through a bonus.

Dear dobronxx,

Please follow the casino’s instructions and contact your bank or payment provider regarding the two transactions, using the reference numbers provided.

Kindly ask them to trace the transactions and let me know what response you receive. This information will help us assess the situation and determine our next steps accordingly.

Hello, I have already attended the bank in person with these reference numbers that were provided to me just today as I was advised by the agent I’m dealing with and there was absolutely nothing my bank could do for me because the money never came in to my account to begin with.


The bank has suggested to me that there has been an error by the third party payment provider.


This situation has stretched for over a month now and I have requested to have my account closed because I no longer want to deal with this.

Dear CrownPlay Casino Team,

Could you please advise what dobronxx should do next to locate the missing funds?

In addition, could you please confirm whether you have contacted your payment provider directly to trace both transactions and verify that the withdrawals were successfully processed and settled to the player's bank account?

If the payment provider confirms successful settlement, please provide any available supporting information that the player's bank can use to perform a trace, such as:

  • Official proof of payment / payout confirmation;
  • Payment provider transaction or trace ID;
  • Bank/acquirer reference number, ARN, RRN, or equivalent reference, if applicable;
  • Confirmation of the date on which the funds were actually settled;
  • Confirmation that the transactions were not rejected, returned, reversed, or otherwise unsuccessful;
  • Any available confirmation of the destination account/payment method to which the funds were sent.

Since the player's bank cannot locate either payment, we would appreciate it if you could escalate this matter to your payment provider and initiate a trace from the sender's side.

Please let us know the outcome of the payment provider's investigation and what further steps should be taken to locate the missing funds.

Dear dobronxx,

Thank you for your patience while we’ve been looking into this for you.

CrownPlay has provided us with transaction details for the two $1,200 withdrawals you requested on 13/07/2026. Based on the information they supplied, both payments were processed and show as received on 14/07/2026.

As you’ve advised that the funds never reached your bank account, we’d like to look into this further. Could you please send us a bank statement for the account used for the withdrawals, covering the period from 13/07/2026 up to today?

The statement should show your name or enough account information to confirm it belongs to you, as well as the full transaction history for this period. You’re welcome to redact any sensitive details that aren’t relevant, such as part of your account number.

Please send the statement to lucia.s@casino.guru.

We appreciate your cooperation and understand how frustrating it is to be waiting for funds that you expected to receive. Once we have the statement, we’ll be able to continue reviewing the matter.
